No Ajahn Chah《062》
《062》「若不成正覺,血水皆枯竭,誓不起此座。」在書上讀到這段話,也許會想親身去經驗一番。你可以照佛陀那樣去做,可是,你卻沒有想到,你的車只是一部小車,而佛陀的車卻其大無比。他能一氣呵成,就你那部嬌小玲瓏的車子怎可能一次完成呢?根本不能相提並論。
“As long as I have still not attained Supreme Enlightenment, I will not rise from this place, even if my blood dries up.” Reading this in the books, you may think of trying it yourself. You』ll do it like the Buddha. But you haven』t considered that your car is only a small one. The Buddha』s car was a really big one. He could do it all at once. With only your tiny, little car, how can you possibly take it all at once? It』s a different story altogether.
